PS: last time I was in Tokyo i banged an editor from HUGE, made friends/met up with stylists and editors from HUGE and Grind, Modelled for Grind and was contacted to model for Brutus and Non-No (couldn't cause I was only there for two weeks). Still get contacted from stylists asking if I'm in Tokyo, plus one HUGE editor recently contacted me for info to write a feature on Australian fashion.

I guess you could say some tokyo kids think this bum-fuck Brisbaner is at least somewhat cool?

PPS: hate to try and show off but it's the only sort of thing I guess you understand.

when was this? i mean how long ago? still get contacted from stylists askin if u in tokyo?? WOW i guess u must still be relevant.

givin you benefit of the doubt (assumin what u said was tru) it's not that they think or thought you're "cool" at all. u just probably have marketable looks/physique.

no h8te, but reading yr post was just awkward. you actually soundin like a"tryhard" here....

To this day i still do not understand this constant need some people have to feel like they are ahead of the curve in terms of fashion. I believe the notion of overplayed is very real, but that's about it. If you have any kind of character you don't give a fuck what is HOT right now because you most likely won't be wearing it anyway and will not suit your frame/looks/lifestyle. It's kinda funny seeing customers have the mindset that is expected of small retail / department store buyers.

Also no one gives a fuck about who you banged or which magazines you got invited to shoot for in Japan. Being white and not short in Japan is like fishing with grenades from what I have gathered. I had some male acquaintances that couldn't get work done in Europe as models so they would go to Korea or Japan for a few months to make some cash and tell friends they were "models". About the stylists and editors of fashion magazines i can only say they are more often than not some of the most self-centered and uninteresting people in the world, it's just fashion bloggers version 1.0 . Once again, no one gives a fuck.

Can we please go back to something more entertaining like reading grade school insults from the visvim couple or what?

The problem is that it's not even about clothes anymore. It's about "social media", "perception" or "lifestyle" as completely intangible things that do not matter at all. We have grown ups taking selfies and going about a popularity contest like they're still in high school.

personal style development is another thing tho, can be about solid identity but it's good to know what's played out or whack (only opinions?) for me it's what I associate with what for whatever reason. how can i grow and evolve if i don't know whats shitty? the scientific method to jawnz is to keep developing that hype pothesis with predictions and observations until discovering consistent steeze theory

also what's not fun? talking shit very fun sometimes. internet is (not) real
